Red Soviet Union

Andrei, you mean, Huaxia will join NATO? After a minute's pause, Ustinov asked Andrei. A red country joins the Western camp? This is too shocking, isn't it?

There is such a possibility. Andre said: After all, if the Americans are occupied by us in the island country, the Americans' strategy in the Far East will fail, and they will definitely try to find new breakthroughs. Huaxia is the most suitable. And Once Huaxia is in the Western camp, you should be very clear about the threat to us.

Because of the domestic revolution, Huaxia has weakened its national strength. Up to now, it is still using the improved MiG-21 fighter jets, which cannot cope with the threat of the Soviet Union. Therefore, if the United States extends its hands to welcome it, Huaxia is really likely to do it. Make an unexpected move!

Andrei, what do you think we should do? Andropov asked Andrei. Andropov also values ​​this young man very much. He has an old-fashioned and mature style that does not match his age. !

It was a mistake back then. Andrei said: We have the same beliefs as Huaxia, because Khrushchev's wrong line created a gap between us and Huaxia. Now, it's time to eliminate this misunderstanding. We We should eliminate estrangement with Huaxia, enhance mutual trust and increase exchanges. I believe that compared with the West, Huaxia is more willing to come together with us. If necessary, I am willing to go to visit Huaxia as an envoy, and when necessary, rise to Reciprocal visits by the leaders of our two countries.

Whether it is the strategic consideration of the current Soviet Union or the memory of the previous life, Andrei does not want the hostility between China and the Soviet Union to continue forever. These are all unnecessary. Yes, it is the Soviet Union! If you have a good relationship with China, the huge army deployed in the northern part of China can be recruited and sent to Western Europe, which will play a much greater role than here!

Huaxia is currently lacking in all aspects of technology. Andre continued: Even if we export our low-end fighter jets and tanks to Huaxia, we can still get rich rewards. Huaxia has strategic interests for us, and also has Real economic interests. Although Huaxia's economy is still very backward, as they end the domestic turmoil, the economy will soon develop, and Huaxia's light industry is very developed, which can just make up for our deficiencies.

Now, under the leadership of Andropov, the Soviet Union is about to enter a new era of reform. However, due to decades of partiality in the Soviet Union, the heavy industry has been extremely developed and the light industry has been backward. It is still the status quo, which cannot be changed in an instant. It can be complementary to Huaxia.

Well, Andrei, we will seriously consider your proposal. Andropov said to Andrei. This important national policy policy cannot be accepted by Andrei Andropov with just one suggestion. It must be discussed at the meeting and must be carefully considered.

Yes. Andre replied, from the eyes of the two, he could see that he was tempted by his proposal.

In the early years, Andropov had been to China many times and had some understanding of China. Cooperation is a win-win situation, and hostility can only push China to its own enemy.

Andrei, before you go to work in the Far East, you can go to the Black Sea Shipyard to have a look. There, the second Kyiv-class aircraft carrier, the Minsk, has been re-sea trial. The Ministry of Defense decided that this second Minsk The number is also assigned to the Pacific Fleet. Moreover, according to the Navy's last naval battle experience, the Minsk has improved. Before leaving, Ustinov said suddenly.

Minsk! The second aircraft carrier of the Kyiv class is one year apart from the time when the first one was commissioned. Historically, the Kyiv was first served in the Northern Fleet, and the Minsk served in the Black Sea Fleet, and then transferred to the Pacific Fleet. And now, due to changes in the situation in the Far East, the Red Navy has also made major adjustments. The second ship, the Minsk, also belongs to the Pacific Fleet!

Moreover, this warship has been improved after the previous experience! This made Andre eager to try.

Obviously, Andrei's arrival was just an episode. Ustinov and Andropov had something to talk about. Andrei said goodbye to the two of them. brain.

I'm sorry, General Secretary, I forgot the purpose of my visit this time. Andre said embarrassedly.

The purpose of coming here! Unsolicited, that is, Andrei has this convenience. Originally, after hearing that Andrei asked for an interview, Andropov and Ustinov thought that Andrei knew that their side was going well and came to ask for credit. , otherwise, why are you in such a hurry?

However, it was originally planned to arrange for Andrei to go to the Moscow Military Region, but Andrei took the initiative to ask again to go to the Far East, which was beyond the expectations of the two, and now, Andrei actually has other goals?

Andrey, what else do you do? Andropov asked.

It's a private matter. Andrei said, I want to ask for a new job for my wife, Yekaterina, and ask the general secretary to agree.

A new job for Ekaterina? Now, Andrei is already a major general, and only relying on Andrei's salary is enough to support the family, and, for the convenience of taking care, Yekaterina sometimes lives with Irina. Ekaterina is working in a Moscow hospital. Everything is going well. What job does Andrey want for Ekaterina? Andropov was curious for a while. If Andrei suggested that Ekaterina was no longer working, she would be a housewife, it might be easier for Andropov to accept it.

What job?

Come to the Kremlin and be the general secretary's personal doctor. Andrei said: I know that my request is a bit bold, but, general secretary, you are now at the helm of the entire Soviet, and your health concerns us. The future and destiny of the entire Soviet Union, you should have a personal doctor. I think Ekaterina's medical skills are very good, and she should be able to take on this task.

Let Ekaterina, come and be Andropov's personal doctor! Hearing this, Andropov was not offended, on the contrary, Andropov was very moved.

Andrei has always been loyal to Andropov. In this power struggle, although Andrei did not perform vigorously, Andrei has confirmed his loyalty to Andropov with practical actions. The wholehearted support of Andropov, and now, it is more realistic and considerate for Andropov. (To be continued.):
